HILLSBOROUGH -- Family and friends of missing College of New Jersey senior Paige Aiello have organized another search today near New York's Penn Station in hopes of finding more information about her disappearance two weeks ago.

Aiello, the captain of TCNJ's tennis team, was last seen on surveillance video at the train station in New York walking in the direction of the George Washington Bridge. Her purse, keys and mobile phone were found on the upper level of the bridge on April 9, the night she disappeared.

The Find Paige Aiello Facebook page, which has grown to more than 7,000 followers, posted information last night organizing the search starting at 11 a.m. today.

Aiello, who turned 22 in the days since she went messing, was last seen by her family at around 1 p.m. on April 9 at their home in Hillsborough. Family members have said that she had been dealing with depression and had been staying at home rather than at an on-campus apartment in the weeks before she disappeared.

Aiello took her mother's car and left it in a parking garage in New Brunswick, where she boarded a train to New York. Today's search near Penn Station follows a similar effort on Saturday.

Searches of the Hudson River were conducted on April 9 after her purse was found on the George Washington Bridge.

Anyone with information on Aiello’s disappearance is asked to call the Hillsborough Township Police Department at (908) 369-4323, the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office at (908) 575-3300, Somerset County Crime Stoppers’ Tip Line at (888) 577-TIPS(8477) or online at www.888577tips.org or www.scpo.net and click on either “Crime Stoppers” or “TIPS HOTLINE”. All calls are confidential.
The Hillsborough Police Department is still heading the investigation but the police have been in contact with New Jersey State Police Missing Persons Unit as the state police aviation and marine units have been involved in the search, State Police Lt. Stephen Jones said.
